SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:MICDE Ph.D. Student Seminar: Jeffrey Hatch and Jiadong Chen
DESCRIPTION:Jiadong Chen: High dimensional phase diagrams: Engineering relative stability in 4-dimensions\n\nSequential learning algorithms based on Bayesian optimization are routinely being deployed for materials stability optimization in high-parameter spaces. We anticipate these optimization methods would perform better if they were built upon stronger priors\, for example\, as derived from the fundamental thermodynamics underlying the equilibrium behavior of materials. Here\, we present a thermodynamics-based technique to optimize the relative stability of a materials in high-dimensional thermodynamic space\, based on a new derivation of a generalized high-dimensional Clausius Clapeyron relation. Using this thermodynamic infrastructure\, we design several pathways to enhance the relative acid stability of Mn-oxides versus its dissolved states for potential electrochemical catalyst application. We construct a 4-D Pourbaix diagram with pH\, redox potential E\, particle radius 1/R and a chemical potential μK as axis. By exploring the gradients of the high-dimensional phase boundaries\, we derive first-principles insights that nano-sizing (1/R) and certain doping ions (μK) can stabilize some metastable Mn-oxides polymorphs\, where 1/R decreases acid stability and μK increases it. Our high-dimensional thermodynamic framework is a general method to engineer relative stability in parameter spaces that leverage multiple forms of thermodynamic work. \n\n*Bio:*\nJiadong Chen is a 5th year PhD in materials science and engineering department\, Wenhao Sun group\, focusing on use computational and data-driven methods to predict materials stability and synthesis recipes.\n\nJeffrey Hatch will present his talk: Computational Methods in Chemistry.\n\n*The MICDE PhD Student Seminar Series showcases the research of students in the Ph.D. in Scientific Computing. These events are open to the public.\n\nIf you have any questions\, please email micde-events@umich.edu.*

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Art of Resistance in Early America
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition addresses the theme of the LSA Fall 2023 semester at the University of Michigan: \"Arts & Resistance.\" This exhibit asks us to think about resistance in different settings\, and in different forms. What \"arts\" did Americans in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries use to resist various forms of power? The exhibit aims to show how the people of our nation's past tried to answer those questions\n\nExhibit Hours: Monday - Friday - Noon - 4 pm\n\nLink to online exhibit:https://clements.umich.edu/exhibit/the-art-of-resistance/

SUMMARY:Performance:Tiffany Ng\, carillon
DESCRIPTION:University Carillonist Tiffany Ng performs on the Charles Baird Carillon\, an instrument of 53 bronze bells located inside the Burton Memorial Tower. The largest bell\, which strikes the hour\, weighs 12 tons\, while the smallest bell\, 4½ octaves above\, weighs just 15 pounds.\n\nThirty-minute recitals are performed on the Charles Baird Carillon at noon every weekday that classes are in session\, followed by visitor Q&A with the carillonist. The bell chamber may be accessed via a combination of elevator and stairs. Take the elevator to the highest floor possible (floor 8)\, and then climb two flights of stairs (39 steps) to the bell chamber (floor 10). Earplugs are available from the carillonist upon request. Be prepared to walk on ice and snow in the bell chamber during winter. Built in 1936\, the Charles Baird Carillon is not ADA accessible. Visitors with mobility concerns are invited to visit the Lurie Carillon: https://smtd.umich.edu/facilities/ann-and-robert-h-lurie-carillon/
